The bloody hand Mary of the pirate

Chapter 80: The choice of the leader

A few days later…

The six people gathered again at the place where they first met.

But compared to those who stood here two months ago, the strength and temperament of the six people have improved more or less.

For example, Mary learned the Six Styles and barely awakened the Armed Haki and the Wisdom Haki. Although they still need to be strengthened, once they have learned it, it won't be any more difficult.

The biggest gain for her is the improvement of her physical fitness. Fortunately, Mary's physical fitness has now soared to a value of about 3200, which is already the physical fitness of a brigadier general.

Of course, the others are not much different. In terms of physical fitness alone, Coleman and Paul next to her are probably even better than her now.

After two months of study came to an end, Zefa asked them to gather at this familiar place at six o'clock in the morning.

"Hehe... Teacher Zefa doesn't know what he wants us to do."

Nxiya teased on the side, but she didn't find the right person to tease.

Coleman glanced at Enxia and continued to look straight ahead.

"...Big guy, you don't mean anything like this~"

Enxiya raised the firecracker in her hand and smiled.

Enxia was also helpless. Among the six people, Mary, Kuhlman, and Paul were all dull. Paul's character was somewhat gloomy and old-fashioned, while Kuhlman was serious.

Mary... simply didn't want to talk.

Of the remaining two, Ai Xi is socially anxious and easily nervous when speaking. If En Xia can finish ten sentences with Ai Xi, it is a major breakthrough.

The other Dusky rarely spoke to anyone except Mary.

Enxiya herself is a bit talkative, and she is indeed very bored in this environment.

Nxiya was still talking to herself there, and the others just listened in one ear and out the other, too lazy to pay attention to her.

It was not until nearly half past six that Zefa belatedly appeared in the sight of the six people.

"Okay, Enxia, you can shut up."

Mary said without looking back. Enxia glanced at Zefa who was in a hurry, shrugged and said nothing.

"Everyone is here." Zefa took a glance, nodded, and then waved.

"Come with me."

The group of people quickly followed and walked to the military port. Amidst the bustling troop transfer, everyone saw an exquisite but somewhat mini warship.

"This ship will belong to you in the next six months." Zefa said with a smile, "Because you have relatively few people, this warship is not very big. There is a special telephone number on it that can be used to contact the headquarters. If you encounter

In an extremely urgent situation, you can call the headquarters for help.”

"It took me a long time to get this ship from Warring States Period."

Having said this, Zefa still had a malicious smile on his face.

"Teacher Zefa, what does the next six months... mean?"

Enxia asked curiously.

Zefa was startled for a moment, looked at everyone, and clapped his hands in surprise.

"Oh yes, I forgot that I never told you about this."

Zefa glanced at Mary and saw her looking at him without changing her expression.

Mary didn't tell anyone about this.

After all, practical training involves leadership issues, and it would be too troublesome to explain it.

Zefa twitched his lips, looked at everyone, and briefly explained the training plan.

"Originally, I planned to tell you two days ago, so that you would have enough time to decide who is the leader." Zefa paused here, "But there is no problem in telling you now, but - you

It will take a morning to decide who is the leader."

"There isn't that much time for you to argue over this matter."

In Zefa's opinion, these people are all the proud ones of heaven, and it is almost impossible not to have disputes over this status.

Just like the first class of students he led before, they are now the three generals. In addition to Kizaru being difficult to figure out, Aokiji and Akainu, with very different personalities, are both vying for the position of marshal. It is true that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.

In Zefa's view, almost all of these six people have the ability to stand alone. It is impossible to pursue without some vanity.

Moreover, Zefa also believed that the students in front of him were all smart people and they should be able to tell that there was something in his words.

However, something unexpected happened.

"I quit~"

Enxiya laughed strangely and took a few steps back against the gun.

"I'm suitable to be a sniper, lead a team, etc. It's troublesome."

"I'm quitting too." Ai Xi said weakly: "I... don't know what the leader should do..."

"A leader needs to be strong enough, so I will not strive for the position of leader."

After Paul finished saying this, he retreated to the back without saying a word.

Although under the training of Zefa and Garp, his physical skills are now the best among the six. But in terms of overall strength, Paul is self-aware.

"I, I'm quitting too." Dasqi tensed her body and quietly moved back a few steps.

"I...I don't have the decision-making ability of a leader, I'm not suitable."

After saying that, Dasqi's fiery eyes fell on Mary.

In just half a minute, four of the six people made it clear that they were not willing to become leaders.

This was far beyond Zefa's expectations.

However, after being stunned for a moment, Zefa put his hands on his hands and smiled.

"Haha, okay, you are very good. You have a good understanding of your own position. If you can think so seriously, I believe your future achievements will not be low."

Moreover... voluntarily quitting means that they are convinced of the only two people left. Then no matter who becomes the leader in the future, this team can stay together.

This is advantageous.

Thinking of this, Zefa's eyes gradually turned to the remaining two people.

Mary and Coleman.

Both men have brilliant records.

Mary once participated in the Battle of Alabasta and led to the execution of Crocodile. Moreover, one of the reasons for the wave of navy recruitment this year was Mary's extremely charming and inflammatory speech.

Kuhlman is one of the legends of the North Sea. As the commander-in-chief of an army, he used a weak army to defeat the Germa troops whose individual soldiers were far superior to his own and whose number was ten times that of his own. He disappeared immediately after the country's defeat.

Very legendary.

At the same time, Coleman is older. In fact, Coleman is older than Smoker. He can still improve now, just because his talent is really amazing.

The passage of time has made him more stable, and his ability to use tactics has also endeared him to He.

But relatively speaking, Mary's potential is no less than that of Kuhlman, or even greater. And the young Mary has a brighter future.

Mary, who awakened her overlord color and aura to face the Four Emperors Shanks, was impeccable in terms of consciousness and temperament. And she was able to face Crocodile for the justice in her heart, which showed her indomitable courage.

Each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the final candidate for the leader will be chosen between them.

To be fair, Zefa is more optimistic about Mary, but he can't say this directly. After all, his concept is different from that of He. He doesn't think that a leader needs to have an overview of the overall situation and the ability to command in detail. As a leader, he only needs to take into account the overall situation.

You need to keep an eye on everything. The most important thing is that a leader must be able to inspire morale and lead others with himself as the center.

In this regard, Coleman was completely defeated by Mary. After all, he himself was infected by Mary and came to the Navy.

Presumably, there will definitely be a fight between the two!

Zefa thought with some anticipation.

Young people, it is a good thing to have passion! He is looking forward to the two of them showing their leadership charisma based on their own abilities.

However, Zefa miscalculated again.

Mary and Coleman looked at each other and nodded tacitly.

Turning their heads, the two of them said to Zefa in unison:

"Teacher Zefa, the two of us are leaders together."

As soon as these words came out, not only Zefa was stunned, but even the four people behind them had expressions of astonishment on their faces.

Enxiya was the first to react and shouted with some dissatisfaction:

"Hey, hey, are you too cunning? Teacher Zefa, is this still possible? Then I also want to be a leader!"

Ai Xi beside her covered her face helplessly. She knew that Enxia was just talking about her, or everyone in her class knew that Enxia was talking about her. But looking at Zefa's look, he obviously believed it.

"Uh... there's no precedent for this before..."

Zefa said hesitantly, which made Mary almost laugh out loud.

Yes, there is indeed no precedent. After all, they are the first students to adopt this kind of practical training method. How could there be a precedent?

As soon as the words came out, Zefa also realized the problem with his choice of words. He coughed twice in embarrassment, straightened his expression, and then Zefa asked seriously:

"Mary, Coleman, tell me what you think about the two leaders."

Mary shrugged. Kuhlman was more inarticulate than unwilling to speak, so it was up to Mary to explain at this time.

Although Mary did not tell everyone about this directly, she had her own thoughts on this matter.

First of all, she must have the position of leader. The leader of this small group has great potential in the future. At least for Mary, this position is very critical in its development.

After returning, she had considered what should be done in the final decision of the leader. After a brief analysis, just as Enxia and the four of them said themselves, Mary also thought of their disadvantages and knew that they should have little demand for the position of leader.

, even if there was no competitiveness, she gave up her thoughts of discussing with the other four people.

Only Coleman and Mary were left undecided.

She knew that she and Coleman obviously had their own strengths, and both had their own strengths and weaknesses as leaders.

Both of them are prestigious people. If either of them is the leader, the others will not object.

In terms of hard power, Mary is confident that she can hold down Kuhlman.

But Coleman's Devil Fruit ability has not been demonstrated until now, and it is difficult for Mary to find a way to deal with it. After all, except for Dusky, all the people in this class are characters who have not appeared in the original work, and their actual combat power is not good.

Estimate.

You can definitely beat it, but how much you have to use your full strength to beat it is another matter.

And the biggest problem is not entirely related to the strength comparison between Mary and Coleman.

After analyzing Kuhlman's abilities and possible changes in the battle situation for several hours, the somewhat bald Mary suddenly realized a question——

Who stipulates that there can only be one leader?

Mary, who felt as if she suddenly opened the right method, thought about it again, and there seemed to be no problem.

The navy has the duo of Sengoku and Garp. Although Sengoku is the actual leader, who dares to say that Garp is not the leader of the navy? Both of them appear with the same configuration.

On the pirate side, there is also the Red Haired Pirates, the famous Twin Emperors Pirates. Although Mary thinks it is a bit excessive to say that Ben Beckman has the strength of the Four Emperors, there is no doubt that he can be said to be equal to the Red Haired Pirates by the outside world.

level, his status in the pirate group is probably not much worse than that of Red Hair.

If you think about it carefully, isn't the relationship between Mary and Coleman very similar to that between Shanks and Beckman?

The red hair can fight, and so can Mary. The red hair has the strongest domineering look in the world, and Mary’s domineering look is no less impressive.

The red-haired person is quite respectable, has a very charming personality, and is well-organized. In contrast, Mary's speeches are also very charming and provocative, and her vision is far broader than most people.

And Ben Beckman is more like a think tank. Kuhlman, who has studied with He for a period of time, also has a similar position. And Beckman will give Shanks some advice from time to time, leaving a few more back-ups.

Mann's mature and steady character also allows him to do these things.

Once she figured this out, Mary went to find Kuhlman that night and discussed the matter with him.

Rather than fighting against each other from the very beginning, causing meaningless internal friction and adding some conflicts for no reason, it would be better to form a leading duo right away.

Who will become the real leader in the future will naturally fall into place as time goes by.

In this regard, Mary is confident that with the cheat, she can suppress everyone else.

As for now...Kulman and she are surprisingly on the same page.

The two of them became leaders together, with Mary responsible externally and Kuhlman internally, which was much better than competing to the death for a title.

Moreover, another advantage of dual leaders is that when one person has a problem, the other person can take over and support the overall situation, making it difficult for a few people to be leaderless.

When Mary finished speaking, before Zefa said anything, Enxia jumped out again and yelled:

"Hey, did you know this a long time ago?"

Listening to Enxia's somewhat angry voice, Mary couldn't help but laugh.

She did know that Enxiya was not angry, she was just dissatisfied with the information gap between them.

But there was no way, it was very troublesome to explain, and Mary was too lazy to inform others in advance and talk a lot. She negotiated with Kuhlman, the only person who she thought had leadership qualities, for three times.

Many hours. Others who do not have this quality, Mary is not willing to spend too much time.

After all, she and Aoki have one thing in common: she is actually quite lazy unless necessary.

Zefa listened to Mary's story, pondered for a moment, and nodded.

"Your consideration is good. It is not impossible for the leader to be composed of two people."

"After all, everyone has advantages and disadvantages. You both have the qualities of a leader. It is also a good thing to help each other."

"But on the surface, this team must have a top officer, so that your team's level can be registered. At the same time, your team must have a nominal person in charge of the handover with other naval forces. This is the procedure. You two

Personally, who will be the nominal leader?"

As soon as Zefa finished speaking, before Mary could speak, Coleman spoke first.

"Mary."

"Um?"

Mary looked at Coleman in surprise, but it was Zefa who showed a genuine smile this time.

Coleman looked at Mary and said in concise language:

"Mary's overbearing color and image are more suitable as a facade than mine."

"And she is stronger, I agree with that."

Zefa nodded and agreed with this statement.

"Then, I will register with the Warring States Marshal according to this standard. During this time, you can get on the ship to familiarize yourself, choose a room, and then go buy some things while you are still at the Navy Headquarters. At five o'clock in the evening,

We will gather at this place."

After saying that, Zefa glanced at everyone, then turned and walked towards the central building.

Mary glanced at Coleman and nodded.

"I accept this love."

"It's just the wisest choice."

Coleman turned his head, looked at the sea, and said without any fluctuation.

"Congratulations! Your Excellency Mary!"

Dasqi walked forward excitedly and bowed deeply to Kuhlman.

"Thanks for your support!"

"Hey, hey, why did you become a leader?"

For the first time today, Mary looked at the naive Dasqi with a bit of laughter and tears.

Although my little sister is much more powerful when fighting than before, her silly character has not changed at all.
